“I would like to call this record THE TWO OF US, because Bituca (Milton) has been and will always be a very big part of my life story. After going through literally hundreds of songs either written by him or sung by him, I selected the ones that made this album with the help of Luiz Avellar, arranger and keyboardist for this project.
The song NÓS DOIS, which means the two of us, was co-written by Milton and Luiz Avellar and has the only guest appearance made by George Duke on piano and synthesizer along with Luiz Avellar’s original piano.
This CD has a steady team of musicians that helped me to create the colours and sounds for all the selected music. I must make clear that this is a true story, based on my own perception of the facts.
This record is not a tribute to Milton, but a declaration of unconditional love.”
